    CORRECTION: At 6:30, we (embarrassingly) claim that a 4% monthly inflation rate translates to an annual inflation rate of 160%. This is incorrect - it actually translates to an annual rate of 60% (we forgot to subtract 1 when we did the maths). Apologies for this sloppy error, and we hope you nonetheless enjoyed the video!

      @@ArnabSaha-pm8id No, he is right. The exponentiation of 4% ends up with 60% over the course of a year. That's 4% on the month, and then 4% on the increased prices for the next month, etc. So it takes the new bases into account. If he didn't take the new base into account the rate would be 12*4% or 48%. The 60% includes the compounding.

    A 4% monthly inflation rate translates to a yearly inflation of 1.04^12 which is about 1.6, meaning 60% inflation, not 160% like you stated in the video! So Milei's target of 18% YoY inflation actually isn't copletely unrealistic (but probably still way too optimistic)

      is not that crazy, it will mean like a 2-3% monthly inflation, core inflation is already travelling at that.

      Those experiments are important for humanity. To optimize any complex system (like political and financial system), people need to have a variety of systems, some of which should have large deviation from the current best system in order to escape the local minimum trap of the current best system.
      This means over "bad" system like monarch, theocracy, and other authoritarian system in general should also exist as a minority of all current political systems. For instance, maybe theocracy is nearly the only way to avoid low birthrate... or maybe an absolute authoritarianism without the incentive of corruption, turns out to out perform democracy in the age of social media where the quality of popular opinion go into a spiral of negative feedback loops.

We had many presidents from all kinds of ideology and every single one has fuck up the economy.

The Falklands War was a unique political move in that sense by an Argentine government, which I remind you was the last attempt to keep a nationalist military dictatorship in power.
      What Milei seeks is to recompose and rearm the Argentine Armed Forces that were dismantled after the return of democracy, our military did not have bullets to train, we did not have active fighter planes, our prefecture could not take action on illegal fishing in our sea , the border has become a sieve for drugs. On the other hand, it is seeking to be an external ally of NATO, which is why it increased the national budget by 2.1%, just as NATO asks of all its members.

      Milei is an ardent supporter of Zelenski and Kiev and russia has ties to former corrupt politicians like Alberto Fernández and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner. There's been a large influx of russians settleing in Argentina, some could be spies, agitators or worse. Our military had been definanced for decades , using old equipment that would not work or fare well against the threats.
      Also, there is the enormous Mar Argentino that has been depredated constantly by other countries, China is in that bag, as well . I seem to remember warning shots fired at some chinese boats and 1 that was sunk or boarded by the maritime police here...
      In addition, Milei is an enemy of Venezuelan ultra corrupt Nicolás Maduro. the Castro regime, ortega , etc. They could all disrupt life in Argentina at any time. Argentina needs protecting, is a big country in terms of landmass (it makes the top ten, if am not mistaken) and quite vulnerable and old, antique stuff in the military and intelligence agencies...

    I'm no economist, but I know GDP measures both private sector activity and government spending. What Milei needs is not just government spending cuts, but also increases in private sector activity to offset decreases in GDP because of government spending cuts. So there needs to be investment by the private sector, especially from foreign companies, to help grow Argentina's economy, which is what I think Milei is going for.

      - leftist autistic screeching that Milei is a monster and is preventing the rise of the ultimate global socialism so "great" for everybody
      - cutting the money supply from the government bank with residual inflation still coming out from the institution and investment sector for YEARS before the consumer sector inflation of prices will stop rising
      - drop in GDP because the government stopped doing stuff. This creates an economic vacuum that will gradualy be filled by private companies. Without government subsidies this will take decades, but will result in a healthy and wealthy economy
      - next in line are the assasination attempts. I guarantee you that we will see a LOT of assasination attempts on Milei encouraged by the Russian, Chineese and European propaganda.
      - if assasination attempts and propagandizinh the argentinian people will be unsuccesfull, we will see a small rise in GDP every upcoming year. Few years after that, argentinian people will be a little bit wealthier every year. It will be a looong and rough road.

Plus you, being from the UK, don't know what it is to live in a country that only cares about short term politics. In portugal we only leave our houses at 33 y.o. because the socialists and communists spent all the money possible to have the elderly on their payroll. TAXES SO HIGH that makes Romanians' salary look like rich people over here. NO ONE wants to suffer short term for a better life in the future and thats why more than 90% of the wealth is owned by 40+ age group, they own the houses, they have their life put together and we the young pay taxes so they can maintain their lifestyle. A house here costs 14 TIMES my annual salary as a Software Engineer (I DONT EVEN LIVE IN LISBON, where the price are double what it is in my city) in london, the most expensive city of the UK, if I had the average salary I'd buy a house with only 10 annual salaries.

      I noticed this too, it's fascinating! When socialists get 40 years of chances it's still "oh wow things are a mess, thank God for the socialist policy though because just think how bad it would be if we didn't have that to help us given how bad things are!" but with a libertarian leader they are blamed for all the problems and it's declared their policies are a failure after literally just a few months of it not fixing everything. This just goes to show the power of what a policy says on the tin. If a "child poverty reduction policy" does nothing to reduce child poverty it will still get A LOT of lee way just because it CLAIMS to reduce it.
      The inverse is also true, a policy of cutting programs in a way that is on paper indifferent to the problems they were meant to solve is lambasted for being callous and cruel even if the data shows the country is having dismal outcomes in the area the program being cut ostensibly fixes. I can see why this makes sense, why would you repeal the thing that says it fixes the problem you want solved? It makes sense people are fooled: convincing people of the value of freedom over intervention / Peronism can be counterintuitive, it's hard to fight against marketing that simply claims it will solve everything, even when you have data to show it's not helping and hasn't been for decades.

    Here in Brazil, monetary policy hawks are in despair because of inflation of 4% per year. The center of the target is 3% and the ceiling of the target is 4.5%. GDP is growing at about 3% per year. Things seem to be going very well here, and we have a center-left government. I think the problem is not ideology, but the Argentine mania of thinking that there are miracle solutions to economic problems every 4 years. They always go very radically in one direction and then undo everything, and this process is always very expensive, generates legal uncertainty and debt. If there were a minimum consensus, as there is in Brazil, Argentina might not be in such a bad situation.

And those that aren't usually already were stable countries before they found the riches (such as Norway, and to a lesser extend, the USA). A stable democracy is actually very hard to get and even harder to maintain. It's kind of a miracle that quite a lot of countries have managed to do it at all. Argentina doesn't have a long tradition of a democracy (only since 1983).

      That’s really not true. Argentina is doing just like it always did. Last year, under the previous administration, the poverty rate was already around 50%. Fixing a country’s economy doesn’t automatically lift people out of poverty, specially not when the thing that was keeping people out of poverty was at the very same time destroying the economy. The previous government was making everyone poorer, just to make some people less poor in the short term. That’s actually not helpful, and it’s not addressing the real underlying issues that make people poor, it’s dirty populism.

Do you think Argentina out of all countries would scape the Covid pandemic economical crisis?, people are getting poorer globally so it is an obvious faith. The reason why they are like that is because their products are not good enough for foreign investors to invest or buy from it. The only thing that can solve that is Milei doing business with the Chinese for example to boost certain industries to help cut down the prices. After that, a short path towards economical development with other developed economies could help alleviate the issue long term while also modernizing their local industries and maybe formalizing the economy.

    One possible reason for increasing military spending is to create a “Peace Keeper Force” a lot of small, economically struggling countries basically export their militaries for peacekeeping missions. Their troops get sent to some god forsaken war zone and the UN pays their homeland big bucks for its trouble. In a lot of cases the US will also support missions with free or cheaper gear and logistical support. He may be hoping that increasing the number of troops, improving equipment and training a bit and then sending them to the UN will pay for itself in the long run.
    If this sounds familiar it’s because it is the latest evolution in a system that started with condotieri in the Middle Ages leading into the auxiliary system of the 17th century and now to the peace keeping militaries of today. Functionally little has changed but we’ve gone through great lengths to make it look like it changed a lot.

      no nation can earn money out straight from sending peace troops. sending troops on other's soil is nasty business and drives the nation into troubles with multiple fronts. only scenario where sending in troops turns out to be profitable is protecting the strategic interests and strategic asset overseas, like US sending in troops in middle east to stabilize gasoline supply, china sending in troops to protect it's overseas ports, India sending in troops to install puppets on voiceless neighbours. these are the only instances in near past. UN peace force is another subject, it won't earn you anything. it will cost you instead. what you mentioned in your comment is just about how a mercenary operates., a state cannot run a mercenary.
      BTW the actual reason for increasing the military spending is to feed the arms manufacturers from the north and to integrate the Argentine defence with the north, so the alliance will stay forever. Political, ideological coordination between the two nations won't last for ever, either one will drift away eventually. but a military coordination/integration/alliance will last forever. Countries which bought Soviet weapons still hanging out with Russia, that's how it works. Equipments needs to be upgraded, maintained, troops need to be trained and instructed to operate the equipments, the coordination keeps on going. that's what Milei is preparing the Argentina for, an long-lasting tie with USA.!

      @@sk-dr8zu this just isn’t true. The United Nations has dedicated funds to pay countries that send their troops on peacekeeping missions and the United States also pledges funds for certain missions, as they did with the Kenyan mission to Haiti. These funds are supposed to be used to pay the soldiers and to help pay for replacement equipment and feeding the soldiers and such. But the country that sent the soldiers is the one reporting how much it costs them to feed the soldiers and pay their salaries. If they say it costs them $100,000 to maintain the peacekeeping force but it actually costs them $95,000 they get to just pocket $5,000.
      A lot of the countries that regularly send peacekeepers are not known for their reliable accounting or lack of corruption. Brazil was the last country in Haiti and both its current and former presidents were known to be corrupt, with those under them probably not being any more discerning. India is another one with a questionable accounting record. It can be difficult to prove or disprove their payment requests and both the US and UN would rather a peacekeeping force exist than not exist so they are willing to throw extra money at the problem than embark on decades long forensic account campaigns against the 2 or 3 countries that were willing to volunteer. Not to mention even with a bit of graft it is still cheaper than the US or Europe doing it themselves with their own forces so again, it’s still a win just slightly more expensive than it could’ve been.
      This is a known thing, the west just turns a blind eye because they get what they want for less than if they did it themselves so they don’t really care. Plus, these are peacekeeping missions, normally having very little active fighting. It’s rare that these deploy to active war zones and when they do it’s usually western militaries that lead them like the U.S. in the Korean peacekeeping mission. These countries aren’t sending their troops into the Somme or whatever wild fantasy you’ve crafted around the idea, theyre sending them to rural Haiti or something where they just walk around and poison the local water supply before going home.

For example an average American earns 50,000+ dollars a month, that's the paper figure, in reality it will be higher, the population with such a productive workforce and income will never consider the puny income from the peace missions sustainable. peace missions fund may sustain day to day military funding or some government operations of under developed central African countries, but not for the countries which dream big.

He is killing inflation from a 20-25% a month to 3.5% in record times. He achieved a fiscal surplus in his first month, and this only happened for 10 years in the last 120 years of Argentina’s history.

      And the high inflation of the first 3 months was because the moronic guy that was the economy minister of the last goverment (and presidential candidate) printed pornogrphic amounts of money to try to win the elections.
      Not even talking about 13 years of price controls.

      @@foundationgamer9771you take away the impoverished peoples’ income, you shrink demand and weaken the economy. What neoliberals do not understand is how expensive being poor actually is. Debt is more expensive, subsistence grocery buying is more expensive, and the nickel and dimes that should go into bettering their lives are eaten by arbitrary fees from businesses that always want more. Neoliberalism has opened the door to corporate oligopolies and oligarchical political control, hence why there has been a wave of political extremes winning seats of power where it was previously impossible. Separate ideology from economics, and divest your identity from your politics and it will be more obvious.

      Every "anarcho-capitalist" or right wing "libertarian" who ever gets power loves to "kill the state" when it comes to stuff like healthcare, education, old age care/pensions, research, environmental protections.
      But when it comes to highways, cops, and the military they always seem to have a change of heart.
      They dont actually hate the state, they just dont want competition for working class people's money. Theyre fine weilding the state like a club against those they prey upon.

      Because they can't even afford it , they will reinvest in it once they can get their economy working.
      The main problem that would bring Argentina EVEN MORE DOWN was the lack of military, and the thing was that investing in military was needed to avoid another crisis or even a civil war. Which would bring the economy even more down.

    There are many easy misconceptions. For instance, the “devaluation” is not about exporting more. There’s the actual price of the peso and the official rate which was set by previous governments. “Devaluation” of the official rate is just about eliminating smoothly the controlled price of the peso. Also, the regularization of undisclosed savings is not about dollarizing, that’s not the way you do it (and it’s not certain that it is still the plan), it’s just a way of fueling up economic activity. Etc

    I was a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 53 years of age. Three years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 3 years, I am 56 yo and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio with CFA, Stephanie Janis Stiefel. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can.
